What is BoS/Bored of Studies?

I knew this would come up sooner or later. Bored of Studies is an extremely popular website for NSW - Australia Final year (High School) students. It is a pun on our Board of Studies, and is amazingly useful for notes and past papers. There is also a very large forum, in which at least two members here (myself and Flyin') are moderators. I would recommend it to any NSW high school students (in any grade), but to everyone else it won't do much for you. On that note, the Higher School Certificate examinations begin in... 10 hours and 13 minutes! Time to go.

So, we've done such a great job that absolutely nobody has anything to complain about? Or is it just that there's nobody here to complain! C'mon, give us your woes. I'm starting a wishlist thread too, if you want to request something.

If you want to see how a post will look, use the preview feature.

Yeah . . . I figured that. I'm just testing everything now. But one thing seems to be missing: a reset function. What would even be neater is an undo.

I dont understand why we would need a reset button. On older boards, when there were reset buttons, the only type of feedback about them is negative. Usually people write long posts, and accidentally hit reset, which effectively wipes out all your hard work, without notice. Possibly we could make a reset button that confirms if you want to reset, but at the moment, its not required. Just highlight your post and hit delete.

CTRL Z is the built in Undo function in Windows.

Yes, "Reset" is a very dangerous function in boards like this. What's worse though is people who don't know how to hilight text and think the only way to clear the text box is to click beside the last character and hold down "Backspace"...
